Descaling - Bosch Filtrino THD20 Série Mode D'emploi

en
boiled, the B RITA filtered water must also
be boiled. When the instruction to boil
water is no longer in force, the appliance
and filter funnel must be cleaned and
a new cartridge inserted to ensure any
residual contaminants are removed.
– Please filter cold tap water only.
– Clean the appliance and filter funnel
regularly.
– For certain groups of people (e.g. those
with impaired immunity and for babies), it
is generally recommended that tap water
should be boiled; this also applies to
B RITA filtered water.
– For hygiene reasons, the MAXTRA
cartridge contents are subject to special
treatment with silver. A very small
amount of silver may be transferred to
the water. This transference would be
within the World Health Organisation
(WHO) guidelines.
– During the filtering process, there may be
a slight increase in potassium content.
However, one litre of B RITA filtered water
contains less potassium than e.g. an
apple. If you have kidney disease and/
or follow a potassium restricted diet, we
recommend that you consult your doctor
before using a B RITA water filter.
– Should your BRITA appliance not be in
use for a prolonged period (e.g. holiday),
BRITA recommends that you take out the
cartridge, discard any water left inside
the B RITA water filter and loosely insert
the MAXTRA cartridge again. Before us-
ing the B RITA water filter again take out
the cartridge, clean the appliance and
funnel thoroughly and repeat the steps
of the instructions for use in chapter:
"Preparing and installing the BRITA
M AXTRA filter cartridge".
– B RITA filtered water is dedicated for
human consumption. It is a perishable
food and as such please consume within
1 to 2 days.
– Like each natural product, the consisten-
cy of the BRITA MicroporeFilter is subject
to natural variances. This can lead to a
slight abrasion of small carbon particles
into your filtered water, noticeable as
black bits. These particles have no nega-
tive health effects. If ingested, they will
not harm the human body. In case you
observe carbon particles, BRITA recom-
mends to flush the cartridge several
times or until the black bits disappear.
– BRITA cannot accept responsibility or
liability if you do not respect our recom-
mendations for the use and exchange of
the B RITA filter cartridge.

Descaling

Your appliance has an automatic descaling
programme. When the N icon lights up,
run the descaling programme as soon as
possible. If the descaling programme is not
run as instructed, the appliance may be
damaged.
Tip: With very hard, calciferous water,
please descale the appliance more often
than the N symbol is displayed. Even
filtered water contains low amounts of
calcium carbonate.
Turn the appliance off with the on/off
►
switch.
Press and hold the start/stop button.
►
Turn the appliance back on with the
►
on/off switch.
Release the start/stop button as soon
►
as the N symbol lights up.
Now proceed as described under "Running
the descaling programme".
Suitable descaling agents are available
from Bosch Customer Service (Article
No. 310967) or from specialty retailers.
Notes:
– Never interrupt the descaling programme.
– Never drink any of the liquids used in
descaling.
– Never use vinegar or vinegar-based
products.
– Always remove the filter holder and the
filter cartridge before starting the descal-
ing programme.
